Nicolas Hamilton, brother of Formula 1 star Lewis Hamilton, is unlikely to race at Thruxton this weekend after a testing crash today.
Hamilton has stepped into racing this season in the British Touring Car Championship-supporting Renault Clio Cup with Total Control Racing.
After the first two rounds Hamilton lies 15th in the standings, but the 19-year-old lost control at Goodwood corner in first practice at the high-speed British venue today and went off.
Hamilton emerged unscathed from the ensuing crash, but his Clio is unlikely to be repaired in time for tomorrow's qualifying session and pair of races.
If he misses Thruxton, Hamilton's next Clio outing at Oulton Park in June.
